The Jesus Secret

The Jesus Secret

Michael C. Wood
4/5 ( ratings)
The translators of the first English Bibles were forced to guess what many of the Greek words meant, for the first English Bibles were translated at a time when scholars didn't know the language they were translating ever even existed. Prior to the twentieth century scholars had never come across any document that was written in the same type of Greek as the Bible. So they assumed the Bible was written in a special language; a language made specifically and only for the Bible itself. But at the turn of the twentieth century so many original Greek manuscripts were pulled from the sands of Egypt that the mass of material was measured in the tons. And it wasn't long before archaeologists realized these tons of materials were all written in the very same Greek as the Bible itself.

Overnight the world went from not even knowing the language ever existed to having the complete vocabulary, grammar, and style fully revealed in one fell swoop. And while scholars now applaud the discovery of the biblical language, they still have yet to produce any Bibles which use the meanings revealed by the discovery. The Jesus Secret documents how many passages of the Bible read when they are translated in light of this historic discovery. And in doing so The Jesus Secret unveils a large number of biblical teachings that had been lost to the sands of time for almost two thousand years.
